A few templates on ClassTools have been featured in the Top 10 lists, like the Fakebook & BrainyBox.

Here are three of our favorites,

Turtle Diary


An online learning site that is designed for students in early childhood & elementary. There are great educational games in math, science, language, social studies, creativity & logic to build success. They also include animated videos to help students solve problems faster & worksheets to support learning. One of my favorite sections on this site is their short stories collection. They have stories available in different reading levels, in fiction & nonfiction (like biographies), stories that read & highlight words to students, or builds vocabulary by providing the definition of key words.

Sign up for a free account to have unlimited access to games, videos, & stories. With a teacher account you can also add a student list, with secure login to keep up their progress.
